IN THE SPOTLIGHT
My heart, O God, is steadfast, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music. -Psalms 57:7
As UCC Fort Lauderdale celebrates our 70th anniversary, we are excited and hopeful to see where God is leading us into the next 70 years of our life together. As we look toward the future, the Legacy Campaign is an opportunity for us to invest in the campus and ministries of this beloved congregation as we continue to serve our neighbors, grow in faith, and welcome all into our sacred space.
THANK YOU UCC Congregation for your continued generosity!
